I find it moving that Lynch's legacy in the queer community is now forever tied to the phrase "fix your hearts or die". It has become a rallying cry. It is bigger than him. It is bigger than Twin Peaks. It is beautiful.

they couldn’t get people into the metaverse so they’re going to try and turn the real world into the metaverse

This is Bodie. His presence indicates the beginning of Pride Month. May his whimsy and steadfastness bring joy and confidence to all. 14/10 the parade starts right behind him 🌈🐾 (IG: hellobodie)

This week’s #OliveArtClub prompt is a classic: please make a picture of this apple. Total beginners welcome (everyone is really supportive!), digital or traditional mediums okay, no AI. I took the picture, all humans are free to share or sell their images based on it. Enjoy!

once again bluesky is an incredibly diverse disaster queer house party with an attached record store and not, in fact, speech and debate club at a white high school

Not only is this $300B of our money to reopen a shipping lane that was already wide open for free but the entire SNAP budget is $100B/year and I was told we couldn’t afford to feed American children fruits and vegetables

Summary: Heated Rivalry was nominated in 13 categories at the Canadian Screen Awards, and won all 13! The show is also nominated for “Best Drama Series”, and both Hudson and François Arnaud are nominated for “Best Lead Performer, Drama Series.” These will be announced during tomorrow’s ceremony!

This should be the conversation killer when it comes to Platner. He wasn’t drafted, he chose to join a mercenary group. He wasn’t starving or homeless. He comes from wealth. He chose to be a mercenary when the Marines told him to cover up the Nazi tat or GTFO. He chose to become a mercenary.

Congrats to Freedom250 for finally booking a new act.

Don't invite the fey into your homes, and DEFINITELY don't invite tech bros who underpay gig workers and just want data on you to sell to other people into your homes either. Hell, the fey at least have RULES they follow. 9/9

Getting green garlic in a produce bag next Thursday—any recommendations on using it? 🍽️

The other thing I keep thinking about is women are expected to constantly problem-solve and figure out solutions to even exceptional circumstances and outlier situations, which AI is bad at because of the datasets they are trained on.

#histmed friends, it's time to speak up about how much the National Library of Medicine means to our subfield! 🗃️

Most fathers would rather commit incalculable fraud and war crimes than go to therapy.

Reminds me of Neko Case’s “This Tornado Loves You.”

Minimally Supervised Emos was the name of my Depeche Mode cover band in college! …oh, I see, never mind.

The Trump $1.776 billion slush fund is not mere corruption. Trump is giving his brownshirts money for recruiting, logistics, AR-15's and tactical gear. Nobody in the national media seems to be talking about this, or about how the Paycheck Protection Program played a central role in funding Jan 6

Though she technically only plays one character this time, Apple's fun new Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed is the first project since Orphan Black that's really tapped into Tatiana Maslany's ability to play so many emotions and tones in the same performance. My review:

Remember: we were never given credit for being right about crypto, we were never given credit for being right about NFTs, we were never given credit for being right about the metaverse and we will never be given credit for being right about AI. Fuck 'em up anyway.

AI is the lynchpin of the whole political project. It’s the container for the parallel governance they have promised each other. I truly think that they are surprised that people don’t like it…and that they can’t yet wholesale punish everyone for not liking them.

When I was in library school, they were all about warning us about the perils of accidentally offering legal or medical advice doing reference work, and here you’ve got people asking the hallucination machine. Just, why? I feel we really missed something here.

evidently the kids are starting to say "that's AI" as slang for "that's bullshit" and I could not be happier

“Instead of student loan forgiveness we’re doing a coup forgiveness program”

the president is raiding the treasury to put your tax dollars into this mans personal checking account as a reward for what hes doing in this picture

Absolutely second this. This had a profound impact on Little Kerry Media Consumer and her cynicism about government. Along with Costs Graves’s Missing with Sissy Spaces and Jack Lemmon which I must have watched 5 times on A & E.

Oh this is so good! Thank you for sharing a free link, Goldie!

Which makes me think of a new slogan for library services—“offload some of your work to me! I 100% know how to read and no hallucinations!”

People have already memory-holed how critical #TeslaTakeDown was. It was the earliest decentralized set of protests in the second term as early as Feb 2025 at a time when most people were shell-shocked and Dem leadership was cowering and capitulating. And it pushed Elon out of the WH.

if you can't find a citation or verify that a reference says what you say it says then you DO NOT USE IT. this is undergraduate research methods. this is the basis of all academic scholarship. are we really in the "just trust me, bro" stage of academia?

They had contracts for prison labor at these camps?? Before they even bought them? www.projectsaltbox.com/p/contracts-...

Would love to be in the meeting where this was concocted. Pretty good.

@ninametz.bsky.social Your newsletter today reminded me of the great Stumptown with Colbie Smulders as PI and Jake Johnston as her potential boyfriend/barkeep, a great hang killed by COVID.

This is up for grabs for anyone who loves 90s feminism ephemera and wants to put it in a shadow box or something. DM me your address by 5/22.

Hey, @theflytrapmedia.com I thought you’d appreciate seeing some ancient Bitch swag.

And heavens know I'm miserable now 🎵 #art #cuteart #comic #cat

Every time I teach the MOVE bombing, students are shocked. And when I teach the aftermath involving an anthropologist who hoarded some of the remains and used them as teaching tools, they are even more shocked. And I teach in Pennsylvania. Even some students from Philly are unaware of this history

I was once told by a new coworker that they had resigned because I love my job so much and am really positive, and they knew the position they had taken would not generate so much joy for them.

The Pike’s Peak Humane Society has a social media manager who is very good at their job

Seriously, bullies only understand the one thing. You can't out talk a bully, be diplomatic with them, or anything else. You first have to get them to understand that you will hurt them so bad that the very idea of them coming after you again will be repellent.

Everything seems awful but maybe I can give away a few books. Here's 3 U.S. Kindle copies of one of my go-to comfort reads, Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers: www.amazon.com/kindle/redee... www.amazon.com/kindle/redee... www.amazon.com/kindle/redee... #KindleBookGiveaway

I before E except after C is not an exact science.

The govt is paying farmers $9M to destroy hundreds of thousands of peach trees that took 20 years to cultivate because a Del Monte factory closed.. Del Monte claims people are shifting to fresh fruit vs sugar-laden canned fruit. Why don't they just sell the f**king fruit? Free markets my @$$.

Kerry, why is your desk covered in old postage stamps?

By the way, this flavor is amazing. I had a sample and I do not like roses or floral teas but this? Beautifully complex and refreshing.

Here's a really fun place to start. We had Mr. Tim Onion himself on to talk not only about The Onion's takeover of InfoWars but also his own thoughts as a former extremism reporter who watched the Alex Joneses of the world flourish and how we can fight back. youtu.be/xRezDjwVhv4

The only thing more terrifying than the Devil is the American health care system. TODAY OUR SHOW GOES LIVE. The Terror: Devil in Silver streaming on AMC+ & Shudder. On AMC linear in September. To celebrate I'm sharing a thread of the films and tv that inspired our show's tone and mood and style.
